The Lullaby Project

/in /by

There’s a program coming up live and online in New York that is all about babies and music.  It’s from Carnegie Hall’s The Lullaby Project.  This is a concert of many of the songs composed by new parents with the help of professional musicians.  Some of the performers are opera singers who sang some of the compositions written by the parents.   Austin Classical Guitar was involved in this program, helping local parents express their emotions about their very young children.

Tiffany Ortiz, the Director of Early Childhood Programs at Carnegie Hall is inviting others to develop their own Lullaby Projects.

The universe sings.  Or at least it provides data that’s music to the ears of NASA scientists working at the Chandra X-ray Observatory in Cambridge, MA.  By a process of Sonification these scientists/technicians/musicians translate data into sound.  More specifically music, which is now on an album called Universal Harmonies.

Dr. Kimberly Arcand, a visualization scientist at NASA,  says she was inspired by an astronomer who is blind.
